BMC Yorkshire Area
About the Yorkshire Area
Welcome to the Yorkshire Area. Everyone's welcome to attend meetings, and have their say on important local and national issues. So why not come along; if nothing else you'll make new friends and enjoy a sociable evening with some good food and good beer.
Upcoming Yorkshire Area meetings
Area Meetings are run by volunteers and provide an opportunity for you to discuss issues and influence decisions affecting climbers and walkers locally and nationally, and to meet like-minded people and enjoy a sociable night out (or 'in' on Zoom). Area Meetings also provide the platform for election to a range of volunteer roles within the BMC.

Would you like to get more involved in the work of the BMC? If you are interested in one of the above volunteer opportunities please come along to the relevant Area Meeting and speak with the current Chair or Secretary.

Area volunteers undertake vital roles in the democratic structure of the BMC and the work we do on behalf of members and the wider climbing, hill walking and mountaineering community. Each area holds an AGM, at which elections for a range of volunteer roles are held, and outside of these meetings, members can be co-opted into roles.
